Love my Millermatic 35S but...

Is there any way to get more wirespeed out of it? Seems like I have it cranked on only the second or third power setting and that's it.....it makes some killer welds but high voltage is out of the question I guess because I can't feed more wire....

Is it possible that the wire speed is semi relative to the voltage on this old machine? It has the plug in voltage selection(not a knob).....I haven't tried it on anything more than the 3rd voltage setting and it felt like with the wire speed maxed out it was "almost" enough.....is this adjustable?

Yes bob may be correct. My hobart e-z 125 flux core runs .030 much smoother, you are the adjustment for.035.just takes patience. And sometimes for really thin weird composition alloy tubing, I even feed in some deglazed 7018 rod as a consumable to beef up the puddle and reduce the heat. Sometimes you just have to toy around with it. Dave
